Lyrics

Heaven come down


Jesus come now


Please invade our space


Our hearts


Embrace your love


Heaven come down


Jesus come now


Please invade our space


Our hearts


Embrace your love


Change my heart, Oh God, when You come


Change my mind, Oh God, when You come


I don't want to be the same when You come


I don't want to live that way when You come


Change my heart, Oh God, when You come


Change my mind, Oh God, when You come


I don't want to be the same when You come


I don't want to live that way when You come


(So change us, change us, change us)


Change my heart, Oh God, when You come (Oh God)


Change my mind, Oh God, when You come (when You come)


I don't want to be the same when You come


I don't want to live that way when You come


So Heaven will you come


Jesus will you come


We need more of you


So much more of you 


So Heaven will you come


Jesus will you come


We need more of you


So much more of you

Meaning & Inspiration

Heaven Come Down is a prayer for the presence of Jesus to bring inward change. Its opening appeal asks heaven to enter ordinary space and fill human hearts with divine love. The repeated requests to change the heart and mind make transformation the central concern. The song does not seek a passing spiritual experience; it voices dissatisfaction with remaining the same and asks for a different pattern of life when God comes near.\n\nThat emphasis closely matches biblical prayers for a clean heart and renewed spirit, as well as the call for the mind to be transformed. The appeal for heaven to come also recalls the prayer for the will of God to be done on earth as in heaven. Repetition gives the lyric a communal, persistent quality, moving between personal confession and a wider plea for change. Its final desire for more of Jesus gathers the themes together: divine presence is welcomed not as an end in itself, but as the source of renewed thought, reordered desire, and a life shaped by holy love.
